    You can install, remove and update apps from Software Manager, so familiarizing yourself with that application is probably a good idea. You can customize the theme and behavior of the desktop in System Settings, which is fun.

      Bonus points, once you feel comfortable with the software manager learn how to update Mint with the “apt” commands in the terminal. This will make you feel like an elite hacker while simultaneously teaching you a fast way to do a routine task, updating all your software. Make sure to reflect on how long this would have taken on Windows. :D
